I still think that Giambi gets my award for the man I'd least likely want to meet in a dark alley.


Or in a bright, airy place filled with police.

Seeing A-Rod pop up on one pitch, the Steroid Monkey strike out and the Yankees go down 1-2-3 never gets old, especially on al-Yankezerra Network.

While I want Pedroia to win the batting title, I would like him to hit his way to it (overtaking Mauer) rather than Mauer having an O'fer. I want something to tell my kids about. I guess overtaking a guy with a five point advantage is impressive no matter what.

The drop today for Mauer is an 0-2 so far, BUT Pedroia wont win it unless he hits, he is 1-1 today, but would need at least 2 or 3 hits, and an Ofer by Mauer.

I know that this game is meaningless, and the only things that really matter are avoiding injuries, tuning up DMat and getting Lowell and Drew some time (are they still playing?), but damn, it's nice to watch a Sox-Yankees game without the usual angst.

I was just thinking how weird it is to watch a Sox-Yankees game on the final day of the season that has no relevance of any kind, not even as a possible postseason preview. We might as well be playing the Royals. How sweet it is.

Isn't this just an extension of the random endpoint fallacy? I'm sure there was a day in August where Mauer went 0 for 5 and Pedroia went 3/4. That has just as much effect on the batting title as anything that happens today.

Junior investment banker with a good strong throw on the move. Over the last two months, Lowrie has really soothed my doubts about the accuracy of his throwing arm.

Is it me or did Dice get squeezed on three pitches on that Alice at bat?

Even the Yes guys admitted that last pitch was a strike.

He threw 1 ball to him, and got a walk for his effort.

Pitchfx thinks two of the balls were the real thing, but (with a strike zone adjusted for ARod's height, both the "high" and the "low" balls were strikes.

Basically, you can't throw a called strike to any of Jeter, Abreu, A-Rod or Giambi. It's amazing this lineup put up mediocre numbers this year considering that...

They're saying that Cano is on a tear since he got benched by Girardi but in fairness, his numbers are pretty good since that time.

Singleton intoned that Ransom's single off DMat is another reason to bring him back next season. That was one HUGE single.
